Description

Storws – A Historic Granary Reimagined for Modern Rural Living, with Income Streams & Acres of Opportunity

Storws is a majestic former granary that has been thoughtfully and exquisitely transformed into a bespoke country residence of rare charm and elegance.

Set within secluded, landscaped walled gardens that gently roll down to the tranquil River Alaw, this extraordinary property offers a true escape to nature in one of Ynys Mon's most idyllic rural settings.
Complete with a adjoining annexe and a hand-crafted Shepherd’s Hut — both operated successfully as luxury holiday lets — Storws presents not only a magnificent home, but also a unique
income-generating opportunity in an increasingly sought-after destination.

The Property - From the moment you arrive, you are greeted by the unmistakable character of a building steeped in history and lovingly restored with artisan craftsmanship. Oak flooring flows throughout, and soaring beamed ceilings are accentuated by original arched windows that bathe the interiors in golden natural light. The main reception hall, with its reclaimed French cider vat staircase and gallery landing, sets the tone for a home that blends rustic authenticity with quiet luxury.

Kitchen - At the heart of the home, the generous kitchen and breakfast room features bespoke cabinetry topped with polished granite, a traditional Belfast sink, and a magnificent oil-fired four-oven Aga nestled beneath a timber beam. It’s a kitchen designed for entertaining, for slow mornings with coffee, and for evenings gathered with family and friends.

Living Space - The main lounge centres around a striking floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, with an oil-fired wood-burning-style stove creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Throughout the home, every detail has been chosen with care — from cottage latch doors and crog lofts in the bedrooms, and a luxurious free-standing roll-top bath in the family bathroom.

Additional Accommodation - Beyond the main residence, the one-bedroom annexe and Shepherd’s Hut provide boutique-style accommodation for guests, ideal for expanding your holiday-let offering or for hosting loved ones in privacy and comfort.

Outdoor Living & Grounds - Set within just over 1 acre, every inch of the grounds has been designed to complement the surrounding countryside. Meandering pathways, timber gazebos, and carefully curated planting schemes enclosed by heritage stone walls.
There are multiple seating areas for alfresco dining or quiet contemplation, while a large, gravelled parking area and stone outbuildings provide practical storage and utility spaces.
The extensive landscaped grounds — including a marquee-friendly lawn and timber-decked jetty adorned with fairy lights — offer immense potential for events, weddings, or simply tranquil evenings beside the river.

For those seeking further opportunity, some adjoining land is available by separate negotiation — ideal for equestrian use, horticulture, or future development (subject to planning permission).

Recent Upgrades - This remarkable property is not just beautiful, but also practical and future ready. Recent upgrades include:
An Air Source Heat Pump (2023)
Solar Panels with Dual Battery Storage (2023)
A Modern Water Treatment Plant (2024)

Together, these features ensure low operating costs and an eco-conscious footprint, making Storws as efficient as it is enchanting.

Location - Tucked inland on the western side of Ynys Mon (Anglesey), Storws offers privacy without isolation. The villages of Llanfachraeth and Bodedern are just two miles away, while the vibrant community of Valley — with access to the A55 Expressway — is less than 5 miles. Holyhead, with its rail links and ferry port to Ireland, lies just 8 miles to the northwest. The sandy beaches of Rhosneigr and Trearddur bay are just over 10 miles and 7 miles respectively, Yet despite its accessibility, this peaceful corner of Ynys Mon (Anglesey) feels a world apart.

Agents Notes - The property is of stone construction under a slate roof.
